“IT ’ S REALLY IMPORTANT TO OPTIMISE OPERATIONS DAY-TO- DAY FOR EFFICIENCY , BUT DURING PERIODS OF EXTREME HEAT , IT ’ S REALLY IMPORTANT TO OPTIMISE IT SO YOU DON ’ T HAVE DOWNTIME ”

DANIELLE ROSSI GLOBAL DIRECTOR FOR DATA CENTRES , TRANE
By using Trane ’ s solutions like thermal storage , customers can reduce their energy consumption and potentially earn credits or financial benefits .
Danielle explains further : “ In Europe there are a lot of heat recovery and heat reuse requirements . For example , Germany just put out one that requires a certain percentage of a data centre to be supported by heat reuse . This changes by year .
“ So if the data centre is built in 2028 , it ’ ll be different than if it was in 2027 . We offer heat recovery chillers , heat pumps and a lot of other different options . There ’ s a lot of opportunity to be sustainable in those aspects , especially when it comes to taking advantage of financial capabilities .
